I am putting down a floor in a C shaped corridor. The landing off the top
of the stairs is approximately 1.5m wide and 5m long - the stairs lands
roughly in the middle. There are two corridors running off each end of the
landing at 90 degrees, these are also about 4m long and around 1m wide.
What do people think is the best orientation for the boards? Thanks in
advance.

This is one of those cases where I'd do something crazy like curving the
flooring to match the C shape... Obviously it's completely custom work but
I'm not always good about controlling my woodworking urges. For example, I'm
building new pressure treated exterior stairs down to my dog run and I'm
using riser boards mitered to fit mitered stringers and I radiused the end
cuts of the treads on the shaper. If it ever stops raining and dries out I
might actually be able to install them!
